Realistic planets and rocket—this series of Scratch Off
Stickers wins my award for clever packaging! They suggest using the opened
cardboard envelope as your work surface. If you are new to scratch art in
general, the activity makes crumbs, sort of like using an eraser. When finished,
use the little felt pad to wipe the crumbs off your sticker, then carefully
dump your crumbs in the trash. Use the wooden stylus (included) to scratch off
the entire design to reveal the detailed image below or make a unique design –
either way, it looks really cool! The stickers are large and quite interesting.
Each set includes 4 stickers and a double-ended stylus (5”). ~Sara
Creating beautiful crafts is a peaceful way to past some time. Scratch Card kits feature 4 themed cards that reveal a specialty paper underneath when scratched—magic glow-in-the-dark or colorful, sparkling metallic foil. Scratch Sticker kits contain small themed stickers that can be scratched to reveal colorful holographic or shiny silver designs beneath, then used to decorate cards, notebooks and more! Each kit comes with a wooden stylus. ~ Emily
Create
colorful stickers or bookmarks by scratching the pictures to reveal the colors
underneath. Each set comes with four pieces to scratch off, a wooden scratcher
tool, and a felt wipe to clean off excess dust. The bookmark kit differs a
little, as it includes five bookmarks and ribbon.
